I don’t see your brakelights burnin’
Well I don’t guess your turnin’ around
You wave back but now your engine is just a fading sound

I was wrong when I was thinking
That I’d survive the storm
And I was wrong when I was thinking
That I could keep you warm

I don’t see your brakelights burnin’
Well I don’t guess your turnin’ around
You wave back but now you engine is just a fading sound
Oh it’s just a fading sound

There’s one way to live and one way to die
I ask you to give, you tell me goodbye
A short wave of guilt keeps you in line
It changes your heart, it changes your mind

This is not what I was hoping
To lose before the spring
It’s time to leave the rocker no one ever sees

I don’t see your brakelights burnin’
Well I don’t guess your turnin’ around
You wave back but now you engine is just a fading sound
Oh it’s just a fading sound
Oh it’s just a fading sound

Cheap rum slick in my veins
With her arms like bone candy canes
Curling around mine to move them away

Violet parallel streams
Race behind constant high beams
Soaring through midnight on feather laced wings

Water fresh in your throat
And bits of snow rest on your coat
Notice the sunlight that keeps us afloat
